Travis Benjamin and other NFL friends will come together to put on the annual Travis Benjamin Youth Football camp for 200 youth on June 24.

This action-packed event will include a day of football drills and training for local youth, who will have the opportunity to be coached by professional athletes including Travis Benjamin. Also after the camp 200 kids in grades kindergarten through eighth grade will be given a backpack filled with school supplies, along with a photo signed by Travis and other NFL Stars.

Camp registration will be at 9-9:45 a.m.; Camp will be held at 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.; Backpack Giveaway check-in will be held at 2:30 p.m.; and Backpack Giveaway will be held at 3-4:30 p.m.
